According to the original plan, the caravan should have returned a month ago.
Even if there was a sudden outbreak of smallpox in Japan, they should not wait until now.
What happened during these times.
When the team leader heard this, his expression suddenly turned bitter, and two tears fell from the corners of his shrewd eyes, as if he had been greatly wronged.
"Sir, if we hadn't met General Zhang Yu, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to come back now."
Zhang Yu?
Hu Weiyong was startled. He hadn't heard this name for a long time, and he didn't even remember who it was.
When he remembered it, all he could see was surprise on his face.
"Zhang Yu is in the Japanese country?!" He remembered that Zhang Yu was the one who Chu Ze picked up.
But there was no news about this person again.
At that time, he was still wondering whether Chu Ze was just playing with people and throwing them away on a whim.
As a result, this person actually appeared in Japan.
There must be something wrong here.
Hu Weiyong pointed at the team leader and said, "Explain to me what is going on."
The team leader immediately said: "This matter has to start with the emergence of smallpox in the Japanese country."
Smallpox broke out rapidly in Japan, and many people were infected.
They saw something was wrong and wanted to leave.
The Yoshida family, which used to be obedient to the Oda family, suddenly rebelled.
What shocked them most was that there were Ming troops in Yoshida's house.
These people are ruthless and ruthless.
A typical example is that those who follow me will prosper and those who go against me will perish.
The Oda family was hit hard.
And they, as people of the Ming Dynasty, were also considered to be in the same group as the Yoshida family.
The Oda family imprisoned and tortured them, and even wanted to use them to threaten the Yoshida family.
But the Yoshida family didn't care about their life or death at all.
Fortunately, Zhang Yu saved them because they were all compatriots.
Even so, several people died.
Their injuries were not serious, so Zhang Yu left them to recuperate at Yoshida's house.
When the generals were almost fully raised, Zhang Yu sent someone to send them back.
The team leader was afraid that Hu Weiyong would not believe him, so he took off his shirt and showed Hu Weiyong all the wounds on his body that were not fully healed.
After he had seen it, the team leader continued: "This time, not only did we not make any money, but we lost everything, and even almost died in the Japanese country. If Zhang Yu hadn't saved us because we were all from the Ming Dynasty, Come out, I'm afraid I won't be able to see an adult again in this life."
Hu Weiyong looked at the injuries on the team leader's body and his pupils tightened.
Chu Ze.
It must be Chu Ze!
Smallpox in Japan was most likely the work of Chu Ze.
And his caravan was the vector for the spread of smallpox.
Chu Ze was really good at scheming and played him around.
Not only did he use him to deal with the Japanese country, he was actually grateful to him, thinking that he was really doing his own good.
And the military.
This is probably what Chu Ze meant.
Zhang Yu went to Japan, and the emperor secretly began to mobilize troops and generals to prepare food and fodder. He must have known about it.
But when I asked him, the man actually pretended to know nothing.
He clearly knows everything, he just wants to make fun of himself.
maybe……
When he thought of his secret dealings with the Japanese during the war, Hu Weiyong could not calm down.
Chu Ze was not interested in money, he clearly wanted his life!
The most hateful thing is that I was kept in the dark and still trusted him so much.
Even if I have some doubts later, I still want to win people over.
Even after he invited him to meet, this person kept letting him go, and he didn't care.
Now, one by one, everything has become his joke!
"Well, you Chu Ze!" Hu Weiyong gritted his teeth in hatred, with a ferocious glint in his eyes. He slapped his hand on the table and cursed, "If I don't kill you, we won't call you Hu Weiyong!"
Hu Weiyong immediately changed his clothes, got on the carriage, and went straight to Li Shanchang's residence.
Li Shanchang was surprised when he heard that Hu Weiyong was coming.
Seeing the man with a black face, Li Shanchang raised his eyebrows in surprise.
It's really rare that someone can be so popular.
Li Shanchang served tea to him and asked him, "Look at your face, it's darker than coal. Tell me, who made you so angry?"
Listening to Li Shanchang's gentle voice, the evil in Hu Weiyong's heart became even more fierce.
He picked up the tea impatiently, brought it to his mouth, but put it back without taking a sip.
The tea cup knocked on the table, making an angry sound.
Li Shanchang looked at him again.
"Who else, apart from Chu Ze, who else in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty has such great ability!" Not to mention those insignificant civil servants and generals, even Liu Ji, he didn't take it lightly.
But this Chu Ze!
It’s this Chu Ze! !
It really pissed him off.
Hu Weiyong repeated to Li Shanchang what the team leader had just said to him, adding more details.
Li Shanchang's brows knitted when he heard this.
Hu Weiyong said while paying attention to Li Shanchang's expression.
"Chu Ze has great ambitions and sinister intentions. If he dares to plot against me today, he will definitely plot against his mentor in the future. Zhang Yu is from Chu Ze. If he can capture the Japanese country, Chu Ze will seal the territory. It's no big deal. From now on, we're just going to have to rely on his breath to live our lives."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shanchang's expression darkened again.
He and Li Shanchang have known each other and worked together for many years, and they are very clear about each other's temperament and taboos.
Although Li Shanchang is now unemployed, his identity and pride are still there.
Who is Chu Ze?
He also dared to jump in front of them.
Hu Weiyong continued: "Teacher, Chu Ze cannot be retained. If he is retained, he will become a serious problem in the future. It is better to take advantage of his fledgling power and get rid of him first and then hurry up."
It not only allows him to vent his anger, but also eliminates a major hidden danger.
This is a plan to kill two birds with one stone.
Hu Weiyong felt that Li Shanchang would definitely agree.
He knew him too well.
Hu Weiyong's lips curled up slightly, waiting for Li Shanchang's decision with determination.
The living room was quiet for a while.
Li Shanchang said in a deep voice: "You are right. Chu Ze has really big ambitions. We have seen him jump up and down these days."
"So did my mentor agree to our proposal?" Hu Weiyong asked.
Li Shanchang shook his head: "But, don't you want to live anymore? You must know how powerful he is in the eyes of the emperor now. If you want to kill him, don't drag me into the water."
Chu Ze's ability is not small, and he is deeply favored by the emperor.
If you can bring people to your side, it will be of great benefit to them.
is a good thing.
Hu Weiyong was stunned on the spot when he heard this.
Did he, did he hear it wrong?
Li Shanchang actually asked him to win over Chu Ze! !
"We have given the beauty money before, but Chu Ze is still unmoved. Does the teacher think there is any other way to win over him?" Hu Weiyong was a little angry.
He said this in a polite way.
If someone else gave him this suggestion, he would smash the teacup in their face!
